The 2011 LENSCRATCH Masks, Costumes, and Halloween Exhibition
Halloween happens to be one of my favorite celebrations. For the past two years, I have set up camp outside my house with a backdrop and camera and photographed every single tricker treater. I am total sucker for a kid in a costume…and any excuse to eat candy. I’m starting off the roster with photographs by my friend, Steven De La Cruz, who has a new series based on favorite horror films, and mine just happens to be The Shining.
Thank you to all the contributing photographers for their wonderful images and interpretations. I hope you have a wonderful Hallowed Eve, full of fun, treats, and a few good tricks.
